Here's Link's Mechanical Steed From The First Mario Kart 8 DLC Pack
This morning, Nintendo of America released on Twitter art of Link riding an equine-themed motorcycle. The art depicts a vehicle in the first paid DLC pack for Mario Kart 8.
“The Master Cycle is part of the first DLC pack for #MK8 and has plenty of horse power,” the company writes. It looks like Link’s chopper is adorned with a Hylian shield and Triforce crests, taking the most apparent inspiration from Skyward Sword's watercolor palate.
Link’s new wheels are only a part of the upcoming Mario Kart 8 DLC, due out in November. Read here to find out what else is coming in that pack and the later Animal Crossing DLC.
